SERVICES & OTHER EVENTS
Events are temporarily offline, as we are learning to be a different kind of church in challenging times.
As of 28 March 2021, Palm Sunday, we are able to open for a 10am Eucharist at St Mary’s, with restrictions in place. Click here to read more.
We remain God’s Church, even when when the building is out of use, and we are still the family of God. We remain united in prayer, and clergy and members of the parish are working hard to make sure we all remain in contact in difficult times. If you find you are struggling, please contact us.
